England flanker Tom Wood feels Eddie Jones critical post-World Cup comments of him were blown out of proportion.The Northampton back-row forward has been named in Jones starting line-up for Saturdays opening autumn international against South Africa at Twickenham, live on Sky Sports.It is the first time Wood has been selected since Jones took over the national job and comes nine months after he was labelled distinctly average by the head coach. Any damage done by the comments seems to have been repaired, with Jones happy to compare Wood to Rambo due to his long hair and beard and restore him to his team for what is a key fixture.I think an awful lot was made of that and I just gave an easy headline, Wood told Sky Sports News HQ. Eddie just said that I hadnt been good enough and that I needed to improve if I wanted to get back in.I knew myself that I needed to do that as well and I got my head down and worked hard. We were in contact throughout. Wood has been in fine form for Northampton in the Aviva Premiership Eddie told me the door was never closed on me and that I was getting closer as I was improving and working hard and so I just kept doing what I was doing.Woods international exile has lasted more than a year and he accepts his chance to restore his reputation with England has come through injuries elsewhere.Jones will be missing James Haskell, Jack Clifford, Sam Jones, Mike Williams and Maro Itoje and Wood is happy to be the beneficiary. Wood was labelled average by Eddie Jones Ive just been quietly working away so that I was ready, he said. The back row is an attritional area of the pitch and there is always a chance there will be injuries.So I knew if I kept working hard and making improvements that Id get a chance but I know this is a real opportunity for me to make my mark.Also See:ODriscoll backs DalyDaly to start for EnglandEngland v SA: Memorable matchesThe Jones factorAir Jordan Wholesale Uk . -- Josh Sterk scored once and set up two more as the Oshawa Generals edged the visiting Belleville Bulls 3-2 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action.
